Mages look down on all non-spellcasters, disdainful mudbloods, dung-forked farmers, sour rudeness, but they have a merit that all mages don't have—a strong physique.

In the wild, the difference between a poor farmer and an elite warrior in the face of fireball magic is a short scream and a short roar. But none of the city-state authorities would allow mages to behave in their own territory.

Both Sartovis and the Imperial Capital have legendary, eternal-level Eyes of Overseer. So when the Knights patrolling Montreal Hill received a report from the Eye of the Watchdog, they went on a rampage into Black Hat Street.

When Ou Lin, who led the team, saw Annan, Annan also saw Ou Lin. The tall figure is dressed in bright silver knight's armor, with a brown ponytail behind his head, holding a broad-bladed sword in his right hand and a helmet in his left hand, like a Valkyrie.

"What's going on?"

"They threatened me." Annan immediately pointed to the figure behind the counter.

Orin then looked at the Shadow Brotherhood's host, "Quithorn...... How did you promise us. ”

"We didn't do anything!" The figure known as Quithorn shouted, "It's this guy, he suddenly cast a spell and broke the rules." ”

"He threatened me not to think about leaving when I came."

"I'm talking 'do you think the Shadow Brotherhood will come whenever they want', and I'm just scaring you!"

"If it is debunked, it is said to be a scare? If it weren't for Orin—"

Boom –

Orin deflected the broadsword.

"—The Knight Commander has arrived, and I have been sold to a noblewoman by you, right?"

"We don't sell people!"

Damn it...... Damn it! Quethorn thought that Annan would be proud to receive these honors at such a young age, but he didn't expect to sue! And I know this woman with the surname Montreal!

"How did you get to a place like this?" Orin tells his men to ignore the elemental creatures and search the Shadow Brotherhood.

"A guy from the Pretending Warlock Protection Society tricked me into coming here." Annan told the elementals to go back and handed the note to Orin, "Then I felt something was wrong, and I thought the fake warlock had something to do with Silvie's back. ”

She was indifferent, and the knight's squire, standing behind her, took the note.

"Send him back." Ou Lin didn't look back.

The knight's squire took the order, and Annan followed him out. The knights have taken over, and the glow of the magic lamps makes the gloomy streets seem like rooms. The resentful sights in the corners covered their eyes, and the dark monsters pressed themselves against the walls like protruding rocks.

Annan saw the old woman who showed her the way, and she was stopped by two knights, trembling and begging for something.

"Stop......," Annan rushed over, "what's wrong with her?" ”

"You know him?" The knight squire was polite.

"She showed me the way." Annan now realizes how valuable the kindness of Black Hat Street is.

One knight explained: "We found her desecrating the body. ”

"Necromancer?"

"No, she just dug up the bones of the mass grave and ground them into powder......" the knight paused, "...... Potions, sold to nobles. ”

After speaking, the knight said disdainfully: "Those poor people don't even have a cemetery after they die, and you have to dig up their bones...... If you really hate the aristocracy, why don't you dig up the ancestors of those nobles in the cemetery and grind them into powder for them to drink? ”

"Don't talk nonsense." The knight's squire scolded.

The two knights escorted the old woman away, and Annan returned to the wide, bright street, and got into a carriage for the knights' attendants to escort him back.

Dozens of minutes later, the rickety carriage stopped, Annan stepped out of the carriage and the vast Montreal estate came into view.

The knight and the carriage turned around and returned the way they came, leaving Annan standing at the door blankly.

……

The glow of the spell appeared on the note, and the mage who accompanied the team whispered, "There is no smell of conspiracy. ”

"It can't be. Jon, send something to the Mage Guild. ”

"Framed! This must be framed! ”

Realizing that he was caught in the web of conspiracy, the knight searching the Brotherhood of Shadows returned to the hall: "It's clean here. ”

"That's not clean......," Orin said to the knight's clerk, "Inform all the rest and training knights to come back, it's been seven months since the last inspection of Black Hat Street, it's time to deepen the Empire's favor." ”

She put on her helmet and walked out with her broad-bladed sword in hand.

"Did Annan send it back?"

"Your Excellency, you can see him when you go back."

Orin suddenly stopped in the doorway.

“…… Where did you send people? ”

Orin handed over the matter of Black Hat Street to the deputy head of the regiment and went to the mage guild in person, and the archmage recounted the origin of the note and returned to the manor with the results.

"Is Annan still in the manor?"

"Young Master Annan is chatting with the old ancestor."

Letting the servants do the work, Ou Lin came to the back garden and saw Annan squatting next to the old ancestor and handed a transparent crystal to the old ancestor: "This thing is called glasses, you will see much more clearly after wearing it, but I haven't had time to get the frame yet." ”

The old ancestor held the crystal piece, and his magnified cloudy eyes wrinkled with laughter: "I see you clearly, little Annan, your heart is as beautiful as your appearance." ”

Ou Lin slowed down, but the old ancestor had already discovered her, patted Annan and said, "Look, little Ou Lin is waiting for you." ”

Annan looked back, and Orin stood in front of the cloister.

"I'll go first." Touching Lily, Annan got up and walked to Ou Lin, and followed Ou Lin, who was still wearing armor, to the front garden.

"Against you is the 'vicious web', and they believe in Rose the Spider. Sylvi and the warlock who gave you the note are among their men. ”

"They?"

Orin didn't speak, looking at Annan calmly like Alice.

"I mean, why Rose the Spider?"

"Why are they bothering me?" Annan confirmed that he had nothing to do with them.

"Maybe you've been in the limelight lately, in line with their evil rituals."

"What ritual?"

"Sacrificial rituals, mate with you first, then eat you."

It's not as gentle as the nezumi.

"They're eyeing you, don't run around lately, I don't know if they'll attack you in the imperial capital."

From the back garden to the front garden, Ou Lin and Annan came to the gate of the manor where the carriage was parked: "Also, you used spells in violation of regulations, although it was for self-protection, you still have to pay a fine of 500 gold coins." ”

Annan stood in front of the carriage, revealing the shock that he hadn't seen when he knew he was being seen as a sacrifice.

"I don't have any money!"

"If you don't have money, you go to jail."

“…… Then let me go to jail. ”

Annan was imprisoned in Breezy City and in Betar City. And the regret that was missing in Sertovis is now made up for in the imperial capital.

Annan's unyielding painting made Ou Lin helpless, and said to his subordinates: "...... Annan had previously lured out for us the vicious weavers of the web, and had permission to cast spells. ”

"Okay."

Ou Lin looked back at Annan, who bowed his head.

"What are you missing!"
